Modular HeliGrids
Faster Delivery. Lower Risk. Smarter Manufacturing.
Newburgh Engineering’s Modular HeliGrid (MHG) technology transforms the way complex HeliGrids are manufactured, helping customers reduce lead times, lower costs and improve long-term maintainability.
Traditional HeliGrids are machined from a single large plate, requiring significant material investment, specialist equipment and highly complex machining processes. Manufacturing can take more than a year, with any production error potentially resulting in costly delays and material waste.
Our patented Modular HeliGrid design takes a different approach.
By manufacturing each feature as an individual component and assembling them into a complete HeliGrid structure, we can dramatically simplify production, reduce risk and accelerate delivery.
Key Benefits
Reduce Lead Times from Years to Weeks
With modular components held in stock and manufactured using readily available materials, Modular HeliGrids can be delivered in weeks rather than the 12+ months often associated with traditional designs.
Lower Manufacturing Costs
Eliminating the need for large, specialised machining operations reduces capital equipment requirements, material costs and manufacturing complexity, delivering significant cost savings for customers.
Minimise Project Risk
Traditional HeliGrid manufacturing leaves little room for error. If a defect occurs, the entire component can be compromised. With a modular design, individual elements can be replaced without scrapping the complete assembly, reducing risk throughout production.
Easier Transportation and Installation
Unlike conventional one-piece HeliGrids, Modular HeliGrids can be shipped in compact crates, reducing transportation costs and simplifying logistics for global projects.
Repairable and Serviceable
If damage occurs during operation, individual modules can be repaired or replaced, extending asset life and reducing maintenance costs compared with traditional monolithic designs.
Innovation Driven by Engineering Excellence
Developed through Newburgh Engineering’s research and development programme, the Modular HeliGrid was created to solve a longstanding industry challenge: how to deliver highly complex HeliGrid structures faster, more economically and with less risk.
The result is a patented solution that provides customers with greater flexibility, shorter project timelines and lower whole-life costs without compromising performance.
